So I have huge file of test data for a students from a program. The file has one column that has all of the most important data I need per student:

[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]User_Meta[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][TABLE="width: 1790"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="width: 1790"]at_risk_status=No;advisor_name_id=000456;career_tech_indicator_code=Yes;immigrant_status=No;title_i_part_a_indicator_code=;lep_monitoring_status=;rti_status=N;migrant_status=No;peims_id=645721151;other_id=61621;section_504_status=No;esl_status=No;special_ed_status=No;economic_disadvantage_code=00;student_grade=11;gifted_talented_status=No;bilingual_status=No;birthdate=2000-10-13;district_entry_date=08/15/2005;entity_id=006;federal_race=----5;years_in_us_schools=0.00;hispanic_latino_ethnicity=Yes;gender=F[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

What is the best way to break apart all the data separated by ; into individual columns, and if possible every before = is the column name and just the info after the = into the cells next to the students names.

Any help would be massively appreciated!! TIA
